Video Editor

Looking for an experienced video editor? I've helped dozens of companies reach their engagement and sales goals through creative and strategic video production over the years. I'd love to do the same for you. Please take a look at my portfolio below, and read on for the process I go through with my clients. Before we get started, I’ll ask about your audience base, your goals for engagement and the overall feel you’re going for. After this is determined we'll move on to: ✓Video Planning / Scriptwriting (Pre-production). If you haven’t shot your footage yet, this where we make crucial decisions on how the audience will experience your video: is it fast-paced and exciting? Or does it tug at heart strings? Who are we trying to reach, and what visual style would appeal to them the most? Upon discussion, we’ll look at visual inspirations and write an outline and / or script; whatever’s necessary to visually and logistically plan out your project. ✓Video Editing (Post-production). This is where the magic happens! Once we get the ball rolling, we’ll go through three passes: a rough cut, a fine cut and final cut. You’ll have an opportunity to provide feedback at each step, and we’ll make sure you’re 100% happy with the final result. I enjoy orchestrating visual and audio elements to create a viscerally engaging piece. It’s one of my biggest passions in life, and would be happy to get working on your footage. I work in the adobe CC platform; my main apps are Premiere Pro and After Effects. I also have extensive experience with Final Cut Pro. Types of projects I’ve worked on include: Branded documentary-style videos Social Media Commercial Tutorial Trailer Animation Logo animation Photo Slideshow Testimonial Event Highlight Music Video Screencast Teaser Video Educational Video Product Gaming Documentary Narrative Corporate Past clients include: SONY, Johnson & Johnson, Adobe Creative Agencies Business Leaders Start-up companies Documentary and narrative filmmakers Musicians, entertainment groups Bonus skills: I speak English, Japanese and Spanish, and can handle projects in these languages.
